Hand #112 - Marty Smyth | 2008 World Series of Poker

Marty Smyth has the button in Seat 8. He makes it 240,000 to go. Peter Jetten pauses for thirty seconds, then reraises pot to 720,000. Smyth makes the call inside of twenty seconds. A huge pot is brewing.

The flop is {6-Spades}

. Peter Jetten comes out swinging, betting pot -- 1,440,000. Smyth is in the tank. His elbows are on the rail, hands in front of his mouth. He just puffed out his cheeks as he let out a big sigh. He seems to be stuck with a decision he doesn't want to make in a big pot. Afer a minute in the tank, Smyth moves all in. Jetten wastes no time in calling. Is this it?

Jetten: {A-Spades}

Smyth:

Incredibly, nobody has a pair. Smyth has a full wrap draw, Jetten not much of anything. The turn comes {10-Diamonds}

to fill Smyth's wrap and make him a straight. "You'll never beat the Irish" chants break out from Smyth's cheering section before the river comes down. Jetten needs a jack, and doesn't get it when the river falls {4-Diamonds}

. Smyth will double up and take a commanding chip lead.
